        Oh my word. The last two look like something out of a book.

        Fantastic!

            Thank you everyone. I should quit while I'm ahead! (kiddin)
            modelhead, the bits of green are done with a dirt brush in PS. I find the brushes can really "dull" down an image if overdone.
            Before the final render I realized that the only plugin used was my favorite and most used, Pipe Along Path on the seven down pipe clips. I was going to draw them with the native tools, would have taken 2 mins.

              John,

              Is there an advantage to using pipe along path over profile builder? Ive used profile builder a long time and have been very happy with it, just wondering if pipe along path has any additional benefits?

              Thanks,
              jon

                Hello Jon, I've never used profile builder. I think pipe along path is great for what I use it for, rain water pipes, ridge tiles, stone details (sweet shop - 2 posts back)ect. The truth is I use very few Plugins, maybe 6 regularly, 4 sparingly and 4-6 rarely. Sometimes the simpler plugins are the best IMHO; but my models are mainly buildings, Sci-fi models would be a different beast!

                  Thanks John-I think they pretty much do the same thing, profile builder does have the ability to save a profile (of a rain gutter, for instance) for use on future paths, which I dont think pipe along path has. I just came across profile builder earlier than pipe along path so thats why ive never really switched...

                  I agree with you about the plugins, although some of the more complex ones do come in handy with unique architecture(like the roof in this recent project of mine: http://forums.sketchucation.com/viewtopic.php?f=81&t=38886 ) or site design (im a landscape architect). Anyways, love your work and keep it up!
                  Jon

                    Your renders are getting so good that people might be starting to wonder if you just take pictures 😄

                    Very nice job [especially like the last one 👍 ]

                    There are photographers that just take pictures and there are photographers who work very hard to make pictures because good pictures don't just happen by themselves.

                          Totally agree with that

                          A great image, with or without hats (and frogs)
                          And that b&w version is just WOW!!!
